First Figs of Summer

Slice, stuff with a bit of the best goat cheese in the world, wrap with a narrow strip of prosciutto, skewer with a toothpick, drizzle with honey, and bake at 400 degrees for about 10 minutes. Repeat.

(Thanks to Whole Foods for the photo, though I found today’s figs at Guido’s. There’s no Whole Foods around here. For years I shopped at the one on Telegraph in Berkeley. I only share this as it makes me nervous to lift the image from Google. Hello, corporate lawyer: I’ve already paid and paid and paid for figs at Whole Foods.)

One Response to First Figs of Summer

I saw those figs at Guido’s, and almost brought them home, though my preparation wouldn’t have been this inspired! Instead, I served dates stuffed with the best goat cheese in the world. But next time, I’m making Gina’s figs.
